Video supposedly shows Marines urinating on dead militants

Screen grab from a video that appears to show Marines relieving themselves on dead insurgents.

An extremely disturbing video purportedly showing U.S. Marines urinating on the corpses of insurgents was posted on numerous websites Wednesday.

The 39-second graphic video on TMZ, YouTube and other sites shows four men dressed in what appear to be Marine sniper uniforms exposing their genitals and desecrating the bodies. One of them can be heard saying, “Have a great day, buddy,” while another says, “Golden like a shower.”

The unknown person who posted the video on YouTube included the caption “scout sniper team 4 with 3rd battalion 2nd marines out of camp lejeune peeing on dead talibans.”

TMZ reported that the Marine Corps has not verified the authenticity or origin of the video, but would launch an investigation into the incident.
